five six things

we have no food. no waffles. no cereal. there is not one baked bean in the house - not a single solitary sachet of sweet n lo. i think it's officially time to go shopping :| or have pineapple chunks and jellied cranberry stuff in a can for dinner :| which i am sure has expired or rusted to the shelf. i've never actually moved the can, it's just been filed between corn and green beans since Julia Roberts was a prostitute)

black friday sucks. i only wanted ONE thing - a 3DS (red) with Mario 3DLand. and was it on sale anywhere? NO! and not only was it not on sale, but it was sold out.... and stupider cyber monday. amazon has Rio 'on sale' - for $25.99??! how is that a deal??!

we are soooo not in the mood for Christmas - we even tried to fake some festive cheer by putting up the Christmas tree and looking at all our favorite ornaments but it was no good - we ended up just catapulting them at the tree to get it over and done with. it's so strange - we usually LOVE Christmas :|

personally i blame the Christmas card - i have a curved spine and need glasses now after spending so many hours poring over it. anyway it's over and i don't care if it looks like garbage - done is the new perfect ;)

also it's Danny's birthday party planning time :| we can either spend $2600 for 2 hours of awful, jarring, chaotic "fun" or prepare for disaster and host the party here :| i choose option C (bribe the child with a cool toy to pleeeeease not want a party because they give Mummy a nervous breakdown :)

speaking of which, yesterday Courage the cowardly cat escaped :| he is the only cat smart enough to ever figure out that the doggy door leads to outside (who said cats were smarter than dogs?!), which means now he will teach all the other cats to use it and we will have to remove it and life as we know it will be over (i hate being a doggy doorman). he was found clinging to the screen of our bedroom window at midnight meowing to be let back in :| he is one very smart cat - how did he figure out which window to meow at?! (although not smart enough to just come back in through the doggy door...)

off to bedfordshire to watch Dr Drew's Lifechangers. while i love the show - 30 minutes is perfect for people who can't stay interested for one solid hour - i hate the name, it reminds me of Cliffhangers from the Price is Right, even though it's not the same concept at all, and it makes me miss Bob Barker :( change the name Dr Drew to 30 minutes. that makes much more sense than Cliffhangers ;)


heh heh :)

imagine it's the year 1973 and David Bowie has turned into a guinea pig:

who knew she was that tall...?

our tour of Hollywood cemeteries - we got within six feet of Farrah Fawcett, Marilyn Monroe, Liberace, Natalie Wood and some other people i can't remember (we went to the wax museum the same day so it was very hard to keep track of who we saw that was wax and who was dead...)
